The CW Announces Schedule For October, "The Flash" Gets a Prime Spot

There are three things America loves: beer, bald eagles, and superheroes. It's really no wonder that The CW has decided to cash in on one of those things, times two. As a spin-off of Arrow, The Flash is set to premiere in October at some primetime hours. And not just once, but with an encore of the premiere episode and second episode.

The premiere of The Flash, which stars Grant Gustin (Arrow, Glee) as Barry Allen, is set to hit your home television sets on October 7, at 8 p.m. (EST). Make sure your calendars are clear.
